Yesterday was a bit of a mixed bag. Went to a garden party during the day and got through the whole thing flashback-free which was nice. Gave my friends an opportunity to see me being sane as well which is cool. But in the evening friends were going to see fireworks from a bridge, and I didn't realise it would be really busy (should probably have had the foresight....) Was doing ok with the crowd even though it was literally unmovable, but then there was a triggering smell (unusual actually, don't normally get triggered by smells) and someone put their hand on my waist and I just went. Friend pretty much carried me through the crowd as I was flashbacking (no idea how she did it cos it was REALLY packed) then found somewhere less crowded on the ground for me to sit. Watched the fireworks from there and that was nice. Hung out with them for the rest of the evening, went into flashback a couple of times but not major ones (curled up shaky but no crying or noise or anything). Friend accompanied me to get mirtazapine for my room and stayed with me until it kicked in and I could sleep, so it was actually quite helpful and meant I never went into full on flashback. Feel quite guilty though for making her deal with me again. Think I'm gonna withdraw for a couple of days and give her some time off because it's not really fair to do this so often.
Got my reading list for September this morning and now things feel real/scary.

I dunno if it's an episode yet, since it only kicked off today. Think I just got upset by an email earlier and that's kicked things off. Hoping sleeping it off will help :sadnod:

Literally feeling worse by the day atm. Everything is so bad and I can't take another stupid exam. Feel as though I'm ready to snap. The stress from everything right now is overwhelming and I feel things bubbling over. I can't do anything. I need some relief

Really not feeling good at the moment, just want to breakdown and cry :frown:

Essay's doing my head in and I'm exhausted. Trying to take it easy. Hope this isn't the start of something bigger. Social anxiety is through the roof at the moment as well.

I'm sure once the term ends and my essay is done I'll feel better, everything just feels too much at the moment.

It's a shame that you were set off but on the bright side you managed really well with it. Your friend sounds lovely and very supportive too. I'm glad that you still managed to watch the fireworks and have a good time despite everything else, that's a real achievement! :biggrin:

You have loads of time, just take it bit by bit. It's no bigger than anything you'll have had to deal with at college as long as you keep calm about it. Hope there's some nice stuff on there :smile:

:hugs: You'll be fine, it's almost over. Just take it easy and do what you can. Focus on whatever's next and just that. Be sure to give yourself a good rest and get some fresh air. Maybe go for a walk to clear your head while the weather's nice. :smile:

I hope it gets better once the essay is done. Don't overload yourself. Take a while to relax and clear your head. Try going outside and getting some fresh air for a bit. :hugs:

Things are sorting themselves out a little. Still exhausted and freaking out but over less and it's a bit easier to push through. I don't think i'll ever really be free of that burden, i'm just gunna have to learn to accept it. Feeling a bit better about myself, hopefully if i'm confident and able to overlook certain things others won't notice them either. :unsure:

Hope everyone's doing okay :grouphugs:

I saw the most lovely psychiatrist this afternoon, she was only young but it was probably the most comfortable I have felt talking to someone and she was really helpful and not condescending like some.

Managed to run 5K without any walking bits (and another couple doing run-walk). :h: Hoping this means my aim of being back at a steady 10K by the end of summer isn't unrealistic.

Running makes me feel really strong... Much as being drenched in sweat is kind of gross, it's such a good feeling that it's in my control. Sometimes when I'm running I think of myself running away from the person who hurt me and it makes me feel really empowered. Plus, even though my weight is normal, exercising more makes my shape change a bit, abs and pecs get more visible and it makes me feel good, like I'm reclaiming my body.
